And you can (continue to) shut down the more “minor” conversational shit that normalizes and perpetuates that mindset.

I don’t think their intention was to shut anything down and or about not believing women.

It seemed like the user your responding to was expressing frustration over the portion of the excerpt that implies it’s the fault of all men for not calling this out when there’s a lot of men who don’t ever encounter this directly to call it out like that.

The Fifth and Fourteenth amendments of the United States Constitution are the ones that contain the due process clauses. That little bit that says no one shall be “deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law.”

The fact that you cherry picked the Constitutional part but cut the bit about ICE being in violation of the courts and the laws is kind of telling. They all go hand in hand.

I’m not sure why you’re arguing in bad faith but I won’t engage with you further and I’d encourage anyone else do the same.

You’re literally arguing that we should separate child and mother

I think the point you’re missing from the judge and by most people who are outraged by what’s been going on with the recent actions taken by ICE is the lack of due process and illegal removal of non-citizens.

If the current administration and ICE weren’t in direct violation of the Constitution, the courts and the laws of the US then this situation doesn’t occur.

I like you. Very well put.

USAID would be the agency for responding to this but they were one of DOGEs targets back in early/mid March so…

My wife behaves very similarly. Often she apologizes for things that I don’t even register. It’s a difference in how we grew up. I’ve mostly settled on ignoring it now but early on I encouraged her to think about who she’s apologizing for, and if she’s doing it for me I encouraged her to stop. Not only do I not need it, most of the time I don’t even notice whatever minor transgression occurred she thinks needs to be apologized for.

Now if she does it the apologies mostly go unnoticed too because it’s not for or about me, and if it’s what she’s comfortable doing then that’s ok.
